Any updates on Jack Rathbone?

Id like to see a Garland traded to help for a Cup run with prospect Aiden Mcdonough to the NJD for prospects Nolan Foote and Shakir Mukhamadulin

Schenn's value is at an all time high and he would clearly be an attractive piece to bolster a teams bottom pairing for a cup run. He adds a lot of value to our team but if a good return could be had right now from a desperate team looking to win a cup I say we take it. Most obvious to me is trading him to Tampa for Cal Foote and a pick. Maybe get back a 2023 2nd

would you trade Schenn, Rathbone, + our NYI 1st to NYR for Bradon Schnieder?

He was clear that if he came to Vancouver to play hockey for them it would have to be the NHL and not the AHL and he was told to go play in the AHL which he refused. So he ended up watching his team while standing at the end of the rink which was highly embarrassing and disrespectful.

Canucks are lucky to have a number 1 franchise goalie with two affordable and reliable backups on the team and goalie prospects on the way. Let Demko take the year off to get healthy and run with the backups. Having a loosing streak with your backups in net is less of a news story so its a better strategy if we want a high end draft pick. We should keep our best Goalie for next season. If we trade him we do it when his value his high and we have a back up is better than him.

Boeser has low trade value now and still has more potential to show. He is only 25 and was seriously sidelined with injury which affected his development. I think his body frame is naturally bulky as opposed to being long and lean, more built for speed so speed will never be his strong point but he could improve. Perhaps trying a vegan diet would be good for him. Teams look at him now as an overpriced ok player. We sold Horvat when is value was at a career high. I think Brock will get better by next year. If we can afford to keep him until next years trade deadline and give him top minutes to boost his stats his trade value will be higher. Unless someone really wants him now and will pay a decent price I think its better to trade him next season if we can afford it.

I could see Boeser going to Minnisota for Mats Zuccarello (35 year old RW at 6m for 1 more year) Then minnisota adding a prospect

It will be good for him to play a few seasons in the AHL and start to utilize his size more. I would like to see him work on lining guys up and dishing out big bone crushing body checks and fighting more. If he can become good in those areas as well as get his pro hockey timing down and playing a responsible and reliable shut down defensive game he could become a nice option for Vancouver

just our luck we will win games down the stretch and will be drafting something like 15 and 23

Raty has an underated release with his shot and ability to create space and plays. I see him as a goal scorer and someone who could slot in on our power play. Finishing off the season in Abbotsford will be good for him and if he has a good off season of training he should be able to make the team as our 3d line center next season.

Beuvillier has always said to have a lot of potential. Building strength was his biggest knock as a prospect. Hes had time to do that and is now much stronger and capable to play in the NHL. I think his best years are ahead of him. Last season Bauviller had 34 points in 75 games. At the same time in their careers Horvat and Miller each had around 55 points. Under a new coach and with top 6 minutes on the Cancuks I dont see why next season wont be a big improvement for him.

I would be all over moving Connor Garland to a contender like Vegas for RW Phil Kessel (35 years old) and RD prospect Kaedan Korczak

Edit then made a deal with edmonton for Puljujarvi

or trade Milller for Jesperi Kotkaniemi

i would rather trade Miller to a contender now. Id be willing to take back a bad contract that expires soon like Jordan Stall, and replace that player with JT Miller. In exchange we get a prospect and another 1st

Now lets trade Miller to Boston for Carlo, Lysell and 1st

Canucks sold while Horvat's value was his highest. I think if we pick this year with NYI 1st in the 15-20 range we could get a good defenceman. David Reinbacher is the prospect I have my eye on. As well as Axel Sandin Pellikka

will be interesting to see how he fits in Abbotsford's top 6

if we delt with Dallas a trade of - Wyatt Johnston, Thomas Harley, & 1st would be ok with me

To Calgary - Brock Boeser To Vancouver - Chris Tanev Calgary gets younger and adds help in a top 6 wing position. They have good depth on D so Tanev could be moved. Vancouver has extra wingers and needs better RD. Tanev's contract is much better for us and is a high character, leads by example type of player. Could help as a Captain or assistant captain.

I like this proposal. Vancouver gets younger and removes a toxic personality in Miller. Reinhart gets to come home and finish off his career for his home town club.

With Adam Foote now as assistant coach, I wonder if a Horvat to Tampa for Cal Foote + trade might be in the works?

Having Gonchar on the bench could help attract Russian players to Vancouver

What would a Horvat to Carolina trade look like? To Carolina - Bo Horvat To Vancouver - Jesperi Kotkaniemi Scott Morrow 2023 1st
